CURRENT MISSION get through finals then get to NYC! ABOUT ME I'm a student of Otago University (Dunedin, NZ) on exchange at U of T in Toronto. Will finish my Zoology and Anthropology Degrees in December and plan to travel in U.K and Europe next year before returning home in September (2006). I'm on a tiny budget so am looking forward to many a successful couchsurf in the coming months! I don't smoke, do drink, and rather than squash a spider, I will pick it up and throw it out the door. Looking forward to seeing the old buildings of Europe. Underground and underwater structures fascinate me. And I love a good maze. PHILOSOPHY I don't have a defined personal philosophy, but I guess I believe "It will all work out in the end"... Karma perhaps?

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE nothing as yet via couchsurfing.com but a mechanic once kindly let my friends and I stay in his workshop (we slept on sun-loungers between car wrecks) when our car broke down 750kms from home!

我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
watching phosphorescent trails of dolphins swimming in our bow-wave during a night-sail one evening; they looked like shooting stars!
